Criminal Intent - Hallelujah

This vid is based on Frame, the episode where so many elements of Robert Goren's life were set on collision courses. However, it evolved into a bit of a study of the important relationships in his life. Hallelujah is a sound of joy, but this is far from joyful. I found the love and the pain Robert Goren experienced in his relationships was poignantly reflected in the haunting lift and fall of the music. As the focus changed from Frame to Goren's close relationships, so did the people in vid. I originally included Nicole, but as time went on, I realized how unimportant she was - really just another (but more persistent) bad guy. Although MFB was another bad guy, the ramifications of his part in Goren's life will echo on forever. I had no initial plans to add Eames, as I was centered on the misery of Frame. As that changed to relationships, the contrast between all the others and her was, well, *huge*. She is the glue holding Robert Goren together right now.
